    Do you understand that your dedication and baptism identify you as one of Jehovah's Witnesses in association with God's spirit-directed organization?

    This is not new in this book, but I think it came about the year before I got baptised (1986) I got baptised as a symbol to this, I just did not understand at the time. How clever they are!

    I would love to see Quotes put this section up on his website. In fact, I think all JWs should present this list of questions to everyone they ever place a mag with! After looking at that list, I do not understand how they continue to acquire converts! (Except for those poor kids brainwashed since birth)

    ezekiel3- On the serious side. It is the person infecteds business and privacy by law. Yes man's law, but...It is still none of the DAMN PO's business if my nephew or niece have a disease. Does this mean if I have a yeast infection I had better not kiss my kids? Or your kids..OH, and must I run and tell the PO? Yes Yeast infections can get very serious.. and are as contagious as HIV. ...when you kiss someone.. OR HUG SOMEONE!!

    That means they are not comunicated through huggs and kisses. Why not disfellowship the poor babies. So that they skip all the publicly shunning? When they come into the hall... Give them a Yellow STAR and send them right on out.... Hypocrites!

    Cant......stop......puking.......*wretch*....*barf*....*bleack*....

    *regains composure*

    Just reading through the cold and callous approach to faith that these idiot lawyers have makes me ill. I see no mention of love, mercy or forgiveness. I see something that looks like an exam to pass the bar somewhere, and it is so sad that people buy this. It is no wonder that people with this type of unloving brainwashing from the start can cut off their own families when they go against the borg; nothing personal, just business.

    GRRRRR

    OH and even better yet... How about we tell the PO and then he tells his wife and then you cant do anything at the ladies social..... You know all of this is private...of course. Maybe there should be a list at the back where people sign what they have that week on a list. And or...piss on a stick at the door. That way only the ones who are completely sexually disfuntional get in. Oh and if you are a molester...well you don't have to take any test..

    Sound like a plan?.
